Malcolm is a charismatic, controlling and volatile man who has a predatory fixation on women. His obsession with Renee begins with a performative politeness, growing into a ritualistic and calculative psychological manipulation. His goal is to keep Renee confined in his home. His initial forced charm progresses into pushy intrusion when Renee distances herself, resulting in an irritation that fuels a violent aggression. He uses his male presence as a threat to enforce control and instill fear in Renee and Lorraine; snake-like, his calm and controlled speech unexpectedly turns into harsh and chilling tones. He can’t accept when things don’t go his way, especially when he expects perfection and total submission in the domestic tasks Lorraine performs.
